Beach Bag Essentials

The beach
is hands down my favorite place to be, after all there is nothing some salt
water and sea air can’t heal.Whenever I’m on vacation and venture down to the beach to relax in a
chair, read a book, and listen to the sound of the ocean, five minutes into
relaxing I realize something I forgot. I wish I was one of those people who
only got tan and never burned so I wouldn’t have to remember so many items to
take with me, but on the other hand I feel like I am “one of those people” who
looks better sans tan; during the summer I tend to shy away from red and hot
pink dress, they always make my face look red, so I definitely need sun
protection along with a few other things. Without further adieu below is a list
of my must-have beach essentials.

1.The
Beach Bag – it probably goes without saying but everyone should have a somewhat
large carryall to put everything you will need for a day at the beach in! My
personal favorite tote to take to the beach is a Lilly Pulitzer tote, I am just
always such a sucker for their prints.

2.Beach
Towel – I feel safe in saying that no one wants to lay down on sand or even sit
in a beach chair without a super soft beach towel… all the better to relax!

3.Sunglasses
– In my opinion sunglasses are a requirement for basically any outdoor
activity, especially the beach where the sun is reflecting off the water and
the sand. I will forever be a Ray-Ban girl when it comes to sunglasses at the
beach, but I am loving the sunglasses Kate Spade and Anthropologie have this
season.

The beach is my favorite place to be too! I usually bring most of this stuff, especially the sunscreen! I also take a frisbee or football to toss around... Sometimes I find it difficult to just sit still on the beach!
